This poet wrote "When he cried, the little children died in the streets" in an ironic six-line poem about a dictator. The speaker of another poem by this author overhears a lover singing "I'll love you 'til China and Africa meet." In addition to "Epitaph on a Tyrant" and "As I Walked Out One Evening," he wrote a work concluding "We must love one another and (*) die," titled after the first day of World War II. Another of his poems begins "About suffering they were never wrong, the old masters" and goes on to use the example of "Breughel's Icarus." For 10 points, identify this Irish poet of "September 1, 1939" and "Musée des Beaux Arts."
